Travel video about destination Libya.
Libya is one of the most interesting desert countries and it is gradually opening its doors to the outside world. It is a veritable treasure trove of history. Ancient art and culture of various epochs as well as the fascinating exotic flair of the Orient make Libya a wonderful and fascinating holiday destination. The capital, Tripoli, awakes early in the morning as fishermen return from their nocturnal work at sea along with their catch which is fresh and tasty and ready for market. In antiquity Tripoli was called Oea and was one of the three cities of Tripolitania. Seventy kilometres west of Tripoli and also located on the Mediterranean coast are the remains of the ancient trading town of Sabratha. Its Theatre has been rebuilt and is an impressive structure that dates back to the second century A.D. It was originally built by the Romans who came here after the Phoenicians and gave the city a completely new appearance. It could accommodate up to five thousand onlookers. Just like the country’s former explorers we venture further and further into the desert and spend the night in Kirkiba Camp in circular straw huts at the foot of huge sand dunes. Next day we visit Garma, now in ruins, but whioch around two thousand years ago was the capital of the GaramantesRealm. From the Sahara we travel to the country’s eastern Mediterranean coast and to ancient Cyrenaika, the largest city in today’s Benghazi. Of the historic city of the Pentapolis, the Greek five-city alliance, nothing remains today as it is now covered by modern city buildings. Magnificent history, untouched coastlines and endless desert landscapes with oasis settlements, salt lakes, rock paintings and Berber towns: Libya, a little known land in amazing North Africa.

Thank you so much to my hosts in Libya for providing me with a unique and eclectic experience during my brief stay. The Ministry of Tourism meeting was truly informative and I look forward to furthering the development of tourism in Libya back to what it was before.
*This video is my own personal experience in that I had in Tripoli, Liberia and only Tripoli. I stayed with a family who's home was surrounded with a tall concrete fence and barbed wire, for safety. Two of the friends who showed me around were equipped with hand guns for my safety, which made me feel very comfortable since we were out until 9pm exploring Tripoli and it's dangerous to be out at night. I did not travel around anywhere else in Libya due to the current situation and can not speak for other places. Please take this video as an educational experience about Tripoli aside from all the negative news we see/hear every day. Political or negative comments will not be welcome. Just enjoy :)

Travel video about destination Tripoli in Libya.
Tripoli is the capital of the desert state of Libya. The old town is known as the Medina and with its narrow lanes and squat buildings it is a combination of Arabian, North African and Mediterranean cultures. The joie de vivre of the local people is obvious and music and dance are part of their daily life. In antiquity the city was called Oea that was one of the three cities of Tripolitania and in Roman times this section of the coast contained the trading towns of Leptis Magna and Sabratha. Since 1963 Tripoli has been the capital of the Great Socialist Libyan-Arab People’s Republic. The old town contains a souk that was almost fully abandoned following the Great Revolution as private trading was then forbidden but when the law was abolished in 1988 it once again sprang to life. Modern Tripoli is undergoing constant development. Contemporary architecture is everywhere with skyscrapers that contain offices and apartments that have been built on the periphery of the city. Around seventy kilometres west of Tripoli and also located on the Mediterranean coast are the remains of the ancient trading town of Sabratha. Its Theatre has been rebuilt and is still an impressive structure that dates back to the second century A.D. Tripoli, along with the historic towns of the former Tripolitania, is one of the most spectacular places of ancient culture in North Africa and the heritage of an advanced civilisation located on the edge of the Sahara.

Travel video about destination Tripolitania in Libya.
Tripolitania: at first sight there are few traces of this ancient and legendary place in northwest Libya but it once had three great cities, Sabratha, Leptis Magna And Oea, Tripoli, once named Oea, dates back to the 7th centuryB.C. when Tripoli was an important trading centre for the Carthaginians. As much as anything else it is the local plants, majestic palm trees and impressive cacti that give Tripoli its Mediterranean atmosphere. Clearly, the influence of the sea is only present close to the coast as a few kilometres inland is endless desert. An eye-catching landmark that dates back to the time of the corsairs is the Citadel in Tripoli’s harbour. The Arabs enlarged the original Byzantine complex to a fortress and for a short spell the city fell into the hands of the Spanish. Sabratha is the youngest of the three great cities of Tripolitania. Thanks to much restoration work the Theatre is one of the most impressive architectural monuments of this once legendary trading city. The restored façade of the Roman stage building is one of the most beautiful to be seen anywhere. Columns of green-white Cipollino Marble with artistic capitols underline the extraordinary architectural charm of Sabratha’s ancient theatre. Around a hundred and twenty kilometres east of Tripoli is Tripolitania’s third ancient metropolis of Leptis Magna, a unique excavation site. The oldest finds in Leptis Magna were made in a Punic cemetery that had been built on by the Romans. Under the rule of Carthage, Leptis Magna became an important trading metropolis until it fell into the hands of the Numidians. The remains of the legendary Tripolitania of antiquity continue to inspire even today and are proof of a great and golden epoch.

Travel video about nature park Akakus in Libya.
Mighty, jagged silhouettes announce the entrance to an enchanting world of rock and sandstone. Akakus is not only a mountain range in South West Libya it is also an almost fairytale-like region, a place of silence and contemplation. However, the landscape does not embrace visitors with open arms as the mountains can only be explored with four-wheel drive vehicles and experienced local drivers.The leg of the journey through the Wadi Taschunt travels past a magnificent natural arch of which there are many more in the Akakus. The Tadrat Akakus area is around fifty kilometres long and up to fifty kilometres wide and is a mighty rock and endless desert landscape that forms a natural border between Libya and Algeria. Scattered artefacts and magnificent rock paintings indicate the existence of a past epoch that was discovered in the middle of the nineteenth century. The discovery of the Akakus rock paintings in1850 was made by German explorer and scientist, Heinrich Barth. The Guelta Taschunt is famous for its extremely narrow canyon that can only be entered on foot, a walk that is well worthwhile. Surrounded by high, steep rock walls and separated from the outside world, those who come here often experience a strange and sometimes even oppressive sensation. The next highlight of our journey through the desert mountain region of Akakus is about to commence, a visit to the King Of The Tuareg. The ninety four year old king welcomes us and proudly demonstrates how the traditional head dress of the Tuareg should be worn. The desert mountains of AKAKUS are far more than just a fascinating landscape whose natural splendour and remoteness are the main attraction. The rocks in the dried out river valleys are like an historic picture book that provides us with a remarkable insight into what was once a long-lost culture of the Sahara!

The largest city and capital, Tripoli, is located in western Libya and contains over one million of Libya's six million people. The other large city is Benghazi, which is located in eastern Libya.

Libya has been inhabited by Berbers since the late Bronze Age. The Phoenicians established trading posts in western Libya, and Ancient Greek colonists established city-states in eastern Libya. Libya was variously ruled by Persians, Egyptians and Greeks before becoming a part of the Roman Empire. Libya was an early center of Christianity. After the fall of the Western Roman Empire, the area of Libya was mostly occupied by the Vandals until the 7th century, when invasions brought Islam and Arab colonization. In the sixteenth century, the Spanish Empire and the Knights of St John occupied Tripoli, until Ottoman rule began in 1551. Libya was involved in the Barbary Wars of the 18th and 19th centuries. Ottoman rule continued until the Italian occupation of Libya resulted in the temporary Italian Libya colony from 1911 to 1943. During the Second World War Libya was an important area of warfare in the North African Campaign. The Italian population then went into decline. Libya became an independent kingdom in 1951.

Leptis Magna Vacation Travel Video Guide

Travel video about destination Leptis Magna in Libya.
Northern Libya was once where the dramatic history Leptis Magna was created, an ancient metropolis that was the first and thus the oldest Phoenician settlement that formed part of what was later known as Tripolitania.The remains of this city are typically Roman. The second century A.D. brought new prosperity when Septimius Severus, who was born in Leptis Magna, became emperor of the Imperium Romanum. At that time monumental buildings were constructed whose beauty and size was only surpassed by those in Rome itself. The ruins of the very large Severian Basilica highlight the amazing architectural skills of the master builders of those days. The Forum was also built at the time of Septimius Severus and today it is the most imposing area in the ancient city. Artistic Medusa and Gorgon heads adorn the remains of a restored arcade in the Forum..The city’s Amphitheatre that was once the scene of bloody gladiatorial battles and wildlife savagery, also possesses its own special ambience. Leptis Magna was an important port for the export of wild animals from Africa’s southern regions, such as elephants, lions and leopards. For many years Leptis Magna was lost to history until it was rediscovered in the twentieth century when it once again revealed much of the magic of its truly glorious past.

Fezzan Vacation Travel Video Guide

Fezzan Vacation Travel Video Guide

Fezzan Vacation Travel Video Guide

Travel video about destination Fezzan in Syria.
Fezzan is a legendary, barren desert landscape perforated by tall rocks that appears to extend forever in the southwest of Libya.It is hard to believe that this barren rock desert was once a green and fertile paradise until the climate and landscape were transformed by the passage of time. Today, sand and stone dominate the scene. Due to the remoteness of this land of sand, rock and stone, a fascinating cultural epoch of Mankind fell into oblivion for thousands of years. The Fezzan was once the home of a legendary tribe,.the Garamantes, of which the Tuareg of today are thought to be the descendants. The Garamantes created a large number of remarkable rock paintings that depict life in those bygone times. The Fezzan was once crossed by numerous caravans and even today one expects to encounter a caravan at any moment but they have since become few and far between. The endless landscape of the desert and its prehistoric rock paintings, countless images that date back to both prehistoric times and antiquity and, last but not least, the presence of the Tuareg, make this visit to the Fezzan a truly memorable adventure.

Drowning for Freedom: Libya’s Migrant Jails (Part 1)

Watch Part 2, “Trapped and Forgotten” - http://bit.ly/1Cwjv9k
Watch Part 3, “EscapingHell” - http://bit.ly/1xCZ5nP
As Libya descends further into civil war and lawlessness, migrants from Africa and the Middle East continue to journey to the country’s coast in search of smugglers to take them across the Mediterranean Sea and into Europe.
Search and rescue operations by Libya’s coast guard are restricted due to diminishing resources, and have to contend with dangerous gangs of armed traffickers.
Those rescued at sea by the coast guard are brought to detention centers, where they face deplorable conditions and are forced to remain for long periods of time. In some instances, migrants are detained by militias in unofficial prisons outside of government control.
In part one of a three part series, VICENews is given access to chilling footage filmed by the Libyan coast guard, who have witnessed an influx of migrants trying to cross the Mediterranean Sea, recovering hundreds of bodies of those who’ve drowned on their journey to Europe.

Ancient art and culture of various epochs as well as the fascinating exotic flair of the Orient make Libya a wonderful and fascinating holiday destination. The capital, Tripoli, awakes early in the morning as fishermen return from their nocturnal work at sea along with their catch which is fresh and tasty and ready for market. In antiquity Tripoli was called Oea and was one of the three cities of Tripolitania. Seventy kilometres west of Tripoli and also located on the Mediterranean coast are the remains of the ancient trading town of Sabratha. Its Theatre has been rebuilt and is an impressive...

Libya 2016: A Solo Female Travelers' Perspective | EXPEDITION 196

Thank you so much to my hosts in Libya for providing me with a unique and eclectic experience during my brief stay. The Ministry of Tourism meeting was truly informative and I look forward to furthering the development of tourism in Libya back to what it was before.
*This video is my own personal experience in that I had in Tripoli, Liberia and only Tripoli. I stayed with a family who's home was surrounded with a tall concrete fence and barbed wire, for safety. Two of the friends who showed me around were equipped with hand guns for my safety, which made me feel very comfortable since we were out until 9pm exploring Tripoli and it's dangerous to be out at night. I did not travel around anywhere else in Libya due to the current situation and can not speak for other places. Please take thi...

Tripoli Vacation Travel Video Guide

Travel video about destination Tripoli in Libya.
Tripoli is the capital of the desert state of Libya. The old town is known as the Medina and with its narrow lanes and squat buildings it is a combination of Arabian, North African and Mediterranean cultures. The joie de vivre of the local people is obvious and music and dance are part of their daily life. In antiquity the city was called Oea that was one of the three cities of Tripolitania and in Roman times this section of the coast contained the trading towns of Leptis Magna and Sabratha. Since 1963 Tripoli has been the capital of the Great Socialist Libyan-Arab People’s Republic. The old town contains a souk that was almost fully abandoned following the Great Revolution as private trading was then forbidden but when the law was abolis...

Tripolitania (Libya) Vacation Travel Video Guide

Travel video about destination Tripolitania in Libya.
Tripolitania: at first sight there are few traces of this ancient and legendary place in northwest Libya but it once had three great cities, Sabratha, Leptis Magna And Oea, Tripoli, once named Oea, dates back to the 7th centuryB.C. when Tripoli was an important trading centre for the Carthaginians. As much as anything else it is the local plants, majestic palm trees and impressive cacti that give Tripoli its Mediterranean atmosphere. Clearly, the influence of the sea is only present close to the coast as a few kilometres inland is endless desert. An eye-catching landmark that dates back to the time of the corsairs is the Citadel in Tripoli’s harbour. The Arabs enlarged the original Byzantine complex to a fortress and for a short sp...

Akakus Vacation Travel Video Guide

Travel video about nature park Akakus in Libya.
Mighty, jagged silhouettes announce the entrance to an enchanting world of rock and sandstone. Akakus is not only a mountain range in South West Libya it is also an almost fairytale-like region, a place of silence and contemplation. However, the landscape does not embrace visitors with open arms as the mountains can only be explored with four-wheel drive vehicles and experienced local drivers.The leg of the journey through the Wadi Taschunt travels past a magnificent natural arch of which there are many more in the Akakus. The Tadrat Akakus area is around fifty kilometres long and up to fifty kilometres wide and is a mighty rock and endless desert landscape that forms a natural border between Libya and Algeria. Scattered artefacts and magnif...

Northern Libya was once where the dramatic history Leptis Magna was created, an ancient metropolis that was the first and thus the oldest Phoenician settlement that formed part of what was later known as Tripolitania.The remains of this city are typically Roman. The second century A.D. brought new prosperity when Septimius Severus, who was born in Leptis Magna, became emperor of the Imperium Romanum. At that time monumental buildings were constructed whose beauty and size was only surpassed by those in Rome itself. The ruins of the very large Severian Basilica highlight the amazing architectural skills of the master builders of those days. The Forum was also built at the time of Septimius Severus and today it is the most imposing area i...

Fezzan Vacation Travel Video Guide

Travel video about destination Fezzan in Syria.
Fezzan is a legendary, barren desert landscape perforated by tall rocks that appears to extend forever in the southwest of Libya.It is hard to believe that this barren rock desert was once a green and fertile paradise until the climate and landscape were transformed by the passage of time. Today, sand and stone dominate the scene. Due to the remoteness of this land of sand, rock and stone, a fascinating cultural epoch of Mankind fell into oblivion for thousands of years. The Fezzan was once the home of a legendary tribe,.the Garamantes, of which the Tuareg of today are thought to be the descendants. The Garamantes created a large number of remarkable rock paintings that depict life in those bygone times. The Fezzan was once crossed by numerou...

Drowning for Freedom: Libya’s Migrant Jails (Part 1)

Watch Part 2, “Trapped and Forgotten” - http://bit.ly/1Cwjv9k
Watch Part 3, “EscapingHell” - http://bit.ly/1xCZ5nP
As Libya descends further into civil war and lawlessness, migrants from Africa and the Middle East continue to journey to the country’s coast in search of smugglers to take them across the Mediterranean Sea and into Europe.
Search and rescue operations by Libya’s coast guard are restricted due to diminishing resources, and have to contend with dangerous gangs of armed traffickers.
Those rescued at sea by the coast guard are brought to detention centers, where they face deplorable conditions and are forced to remain for long periods of time. In some instances, migrants are detained by militias in unofficial prisons outside of government control.
In part one of a three part...

Travel video about destination Libya.
Libya is one of the most interesting desert countries and it is gradually opening its doors to the outside world. It is a veritable treasure trove of history. Ancient art and culture of various epochs as well as the fascinating exotic flair of the Orient make Libya a wonderful and fascinating holiday destination. The capital, Tripoli, awakes early in the morning as fishermen return from their nocturnal work at sea along with their catch which is fresh and tasty and ready for market. In antiquity Tripoli was called Oea and was one of the three cities of Tripolitania. Seventy kilometres west of Tripoli and also located on the Mediterranean coast are the remains of the ancient trading town of Sabratha. Its Theatre has been rebuilt and is an impressive structure that dates back to the second century A.D. It was originally built by the Romans who came here after the Phoenicians and gave the city a completely new appearance. It could accommodate up to five thousand onlookers. Just like the country’s former explorers we venture further and further into the desert and spend the night in Kirkiba Camp in circular straw huts at the foot of huge sand dunes. Next day we visit Garma, now in ruins, but whioch around two thousand years ago was the capital of the GaramantesRealm. From the Sahara we travel to the country’s eastern Mediterranean coast and to ancient Cyrenaika, the largest city in today’s Benghazi. Of the historic city of the Pentapolis, the Greek five-city alliance, nothing remains today as it is now covered by modern city buildings. Magnificent history, untouched coastlines and endless desert landscapes with oasis settlements, salt lakes, rock paintings and Berber towns: Libya, a little known land in amazing North Africa.

Thank you so much to my hosts in Libya for providing me with a unique and eclectic experience during my brief stay. The Ministry of Tourism meeting was truly informative and I look forward to furthering the development of tourism in Libya back to what it was before.
*This video is my own personal experience in that I had in Tripoli, Liberia and only Tripoli. I stayed with a family who's home was surrounded with a tall concrete fence and barbed wire, for safety. Two of the friends who showed me around were equipped with hand guns for my safety, which made me feel very comfortable since we were out until 9pm exploring Tripoli and it's dangerous to be out at night. I did not travel around anywhere else in Libya due to the current situation and can not speak for other places. Please take this video as an educational experience about Tripoli aside from all the negative news we see/hear every day. Political or negative comments will not be welcome. Just enjoy :)

The old town is known as the Medina and with its narrow lanes and squat buildings it is a combination of Arabian, North African and Mediterranean cultures. The joie de vivre of the local people is obvious and music and dance are part of their daily life. In antiquity the city was called Oea that was one of the three cities of Tripolitania and in Roman times this section of the coast contained the trading towns of Leptis Magna and Sabratha. Since 1963 Tripoli has been the capital of the Great Socialist Libyan-Arab People’s Republic. The old town contains a souk that was almost fully abandoned following the Great Revolution as private trading was then forbidden but when the law was abolished in 1988 it once again sprang to life. Modern Tripoli is undergoing constant development. Contemporary architecture is everywhere with skyscrapers that contain offices and apartments that have been built on the periphery of the city. Around seventy kilometres west of Tripoli and also located on the Mediterranean coast are the remains of the ancient trading town of Sabratha. Its Theatre has been rebuilt and is still an impressive structure that dates back to the second century A.D. Tripoli, along with the historic towns of the former Tripolitania, is one of the most spectacular places of ancient culture in North Africa and the heritage of an advanced civilisation located on the edge of the Sahara.

An eye-catching landmark that dates back to the time of the corsairs is the Citadel in Tripoli’s harbour. The Arabs enlarged the original Byzantine complex to a fortress and for a short spell the city fell into the hands of the Spanish. Sabratha is the youngest of the three great cities of Tripolitania. Thanks to much restoration work the Theatre is one of the most impressive architectural monuments of this once legendary trading city. The restored façade of the Roman stage building is one of the most beautiful to be seen anywhere. Columns of green-white Cipollino Marble with artistic capitols underline the extraordinary architectural charm of Sabratha’s ancient theatre. Around a hundred and twenty kilometres east of Tripoli is Tripolitania’s third ancient metropolis of Leptis Magna, a unique excavation site. The oldest finds in Leptis Magna were made in a Punic cemetery that had been built on by the Romans. Under the rule of Carthage, Leptis Magna became an important trading metropolis until it fell into the hands of the Numidians. The remains of the legendary Tripolitania of antiquity continue to inspire even today and are proof of a great and golden epoch.

Travel video about nature park Akakus in Libya.
Mighty, jagged silhouettes announce the entrance to an enchanting world of rock and sandstone. Akakus is not only a mountain range in South West Libya it is also an almost fairytale-like region, a place of silence and contemplation. However, the landscape does not embrace visitors with open arms as the mountains can only be explored with four-wheel drive vehicles and experienced local drivers.The leg of the journey through the Wadi Taschunt travels past a magnificent natural arch of which there are many more in the Akakus. The Tadrat Akakus area is around fifty kilometres long and up to fifty kilometres wide and is a mighty rock and endless desert landscape that forms a natural border between Libya and Algeria. Scattered artefacts and magnificent rock paintings indicate the existence of a past epoch that was discovered in the middle of the nineteenth century. The discovery of the Akakus rock paintings in1850 was made by German explorer and scientist, Heinrich Barth. The Guelta Taschunt is famous for its extremely narrow canyon that can only be entered on foot, a walk that is well worthwhile. Surrounded by high, steep rock walls and separated from the outside world, those who come here often experience a strange and sometimes even oppressive sensation. The next highlight of our journey through the desert mountain region of Akakus is about to commence, a visit to the King Of The Tuareg. The ninety four year old king welcomes us and proudly demonstrates how the traditional head dress of the Tuareg should be worn. The desert mountains of AKAKUS are far more than just a fascinating landscape whose natural splendour and remoteness are the main attraction. The rocks in the dried out river valleys are like an historic picture book that provides us with a remarkable insight into what was once a long-lost culture of the Sahara!

Travel video about destination Leptis Magna in Libya.
Northern Libya was once where the dramatic history Leptis Magna was created, an ancient metropolis that was the first and thus the oldest Phoenician settlement that formed part of what was later known as Tripolitania.The remains of this city are typically Roman. The second century A.D. brought new prosperity when Septimius Severus, who was born in Leptis Magna, became emperor of the Imperium Romanum. At that time monumental buildings were constructed whose beauty and size was only surpassed by those in Rome itself. The ruins of the very large Severian Basilica highlight the amazing architectural skills of the master builders of those days. The Forum was also built at the time of Septimius Severus and today it is the most imposing area in the ancient city. Artistic Medusa and Gorgon heads adorn the remains of a restored arcade in the Forum..The city’s Amphitheatre that was once the scene of bloody gladiatorial battles and wildlife savagery, also possesses its own special ambience. Leptis Magna was an important port for the export of wild animals from Africa’s southern regions, such as elephants, lions and leopards. For many years Leptis Magna was lost to history until it was rediscovered in the twentieth century when it once again revealed much of the magic of its truly glorious past.

Leptis Magna was an important port for the export of wild animals from Africa’s southern regions, such as elephants, lions and leopards. For many years Leptis Magna was lost to history until it was rediscovered in the twentieth century when it once again revealed much of the magic of its truly glorious past.

Travel video about destination Fezzan in Syria.
Fezzan is a legendary, barren desert landscape perforated by tall rocks that appears to extend forever in the southwest of Libya.It is hard to believe that this barren rock desert was once a green and fertile paradise until the climate and landscape were transformed by the passage of time. Today, sand and stone dominate the scene. Due to the remoteness of this land of sand, rock and stone, a fascinating cultural epoch of Mankind fell into oblivion for thousands of years. The Fezzan was once the home of a legendary tribe,.the Garamantes, of which the Tuareg of today are thought to be the descendants. The Garamantes created a large number of remarkable rock paintings that depict life in those bygone times. The Fezzan was once crossed by numerous caravans and even today one expects to encounter a caravan at any moment but they have since become few and far between. The endless landscape of the desert and its prehistoric rock paintings, countless images that date back to both prehistoric times and antiquity and, last but not least, the presence of the Tuareg, make this visit to the Fezzan a truly memorable adventure.

As Libya descends further into civil war and lawlessness, migrants from Africa and the Middle East continue to journey to the country’s coast in search of smugglers to take them across the Mediterranean Sea and into Europe.
Search and rescue operations by Libya’s coast guard are restricted due to diminishing resources, and have to contend with dangerous gangs of armed traffickers.
Those rescued at sea by the coast guard are brought to detention centers, where they face deplorable conditions and are forced to remain for long periods of time. In some instances, migrants are detained by militias in unofficial prisons outside of government control.
In part one of a three part series, VICENews is given access to chilling footage filmed by the Libyan coast guard, who have witnessed an influx of migrants trying to cross the Mediterranean Sea, recovering hundreds of bodies of those who’ve drowned on their journey to Europe.

Life After Qaddafi — Libya: A Broken State

Subscribe to VICENews here: http://bit.ly/Subscribe-to-VICE-News
Three years after the Libyan revolution and the subsequent downfall of its dictator Muammar Qaddafi, the country has descended further into chaos and insecurity. Rebel militias, radical Islamists and former Qaddafi commander Khalifa Haftar are among the different groups vying for power and oil wealth, creating a vacuum in which violence and militancy reign supreme.
VICE News filmmaker Medyan Dairieh was in Libya in 2011 to witness the revolution. This year, he returned to follow members of the 17th February battalion, a rebel group fighting against Haftar’s forces. Dairieh witnessed first-hand how life after the Libyan revolution has devolved into lawlessness and Islamic State-linked extremism.

Flint Water Crisis & Libya on the Brink (VICE on HBO: Season 4, Episode 15)

The water crisis in Flint, Michigan horrified the nation: a once-thriving industrial city had fallen on such hard times that residents couldn't even trust the water from their own taps. More shocking still were revelations that city and state officials knew about the problems with the water, but failed to take action or warn the public. VICE reports from Flint on the realities of life in a city poisoned by its own government.
When the Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi was killed during the revolution of 2011, it seemed like good news for democracy in the Muslim world. But in 2012, the American ambassador and three other Americans were killed in a bloody attack in Benghazi. Today, a split between government factions has ceded large portions of the country to ISIS fighters and other extremist...

Al JazeeraWorld - Libya's Shifting Sands: Sirte
In the second episode of Libya's Shifting Sands, Libyan government-backed forces find themselves fighting ISIL in the central coastal city of Sirte, 850 kilometres west of Derna.
ISIL moved on Sirte before it was forced from Derna, partly because it saw cities where the majority of people were opposed to the revolution of 2011 as prime targets. But by 2015, the government troops were fighting a losing battle. They expected to be boosted by forces controlled by the renegade GeneralKhalifa Haftar - but his operation proved less effective than anticipated.
In Derna, the government forces and local armed Islamist groups accused Haftar of colluding with ISIL. They referred to his group as Operation Dignity forces, after his campaign against s...

Chaos in Libya is Setting The Stage For An ISIS Comeback (HBO)

Six years after Muammar Gaddafi’s fall in 2011, fighting between rival government and militias has plunged Libya into anarchy, creating a vacuum for groups like ISIS to move into.
Last year, ISIS took control of the port city of Sirte, Gaddafi’s former hometown and the largest ISIS stronghold outside Iraq and Syria. But local militias, backed by U.S. airstrikes, recaptured Sirte after a seven month-long battle that ended in December.
Yet the fractious local militias guarding Sirte still have no real control over the territory. And ISIS is regrouping nearby, raising fears that Libya’s new slide toward anarchy could pave the way for an ISIS comeback.
VICENews reports from Sirte.

Two of the friends who showed me around were equipped with hand guns for my safety, which made me feel very comfortable since we were out until 9pm exploring Tripoli and it's dangerous to be out at night.

Six years have passed since the outbreak of the revolution that led to the ouster and killing of Libyan strongman Muammar Gaddafi. With the country divided between rival clans, some are beginning to miss the old regime, however despised it was at the time.

Zintan is a city like no other. Perched high in Libya’s north-western Nafusa Mountains, near the capital Tripoli, it played a key role in the revolution. It was here that Gaddafi’s first missiles fell in the west of the country. It was also in Zintan that Saif al-I...

Living deep in Libya’s desert near large oil fields and lucrative smuggling routes, hundreds of miles from Libya’s capital, the Tuareg find themselves impoverished and isolated on this prized land.
Nowhere is this felt more than in the oasis town of Ubari. Here the Tuareg are pitted against former neighbors in a proxy battle for assets and power, backed by government and international interests.

Al JazeeraWorld - Libya's Shifting Sands: Sirte
In the second episode of Libya's Shifting Sands, Libyan government-backed forces find themselves fighting ISIL in the central coastal city of Sirte, 850 kilometres west of Derna.
ISIL moved on Sirte before it was forced from Derna, partly because it saw cities where the majority of people were opposed to the revolution of 2011 as prime targets. But by 2015, the government troops were fighting a losing battle. They expected to be boosted by forces controlled by the renegade GeneralKhalifa Haftar - but his operation proved less effective than anticipated.
In Derna, the government forces and local armed Islamist groups accused Haftar of colluding with ISIL. They referred to his group as Operation Dignity forces, after his campaign against supporters of the February 2011 revolution in Benghazi.
"Some people and military personnel in Sirte supported the old regime. So they believed that helping ISIL was better than having the 17th February revolutionaries in Sirte," explains Ismail Shokri, a Libyan intelligence officer. So when the March 2015 fight against ISIL in Sirte began, "I remember Operation Dignity planes bombing Battalion 166 as they were fighting ISIL", he says.
They [ISIL] weren't targeted or bombed so they arrived safely in Sirte, protected by Haftar. He claims to fight terrorism but why didn't he bomb them?
BrigadierMohammed Al-Ghusri, in charge of operation al-Bunyan al-Marsous
As the government backed-forces were doing their best to fight ISIL in Sirte, General Haftar's forces launched what they called 'Operation Qurdabiya Two', their supposed bid to liberate Sirte from ISIL. But it fell well short.

Al JazeeraWorld - Libya's Shifting Sands: Sirte
In the second episode of Libya's Shifting Sands, Libyan government-backed forces find themselves fighting ISIL in the central coastal city of Sirte, 850 kilometres west of Derna.
ISIL moved on Sirte before it was forced from Derna, partly because it saw cities where the majority of people were opposed to the revolution of 2011 as prime targets. But by 2015, the government troops were fighting a losing battle. They expected to be boosted by forces controlled by the renegade GeneralKhalifa Haftar - but his operation proved less effective than anticipated.
In Derna, the government forces and local armed Islamist groups accused Haftar of colluding with ISIL. They referred to his group as Operation Dignity forces, after his campaign against supporters of the February 2011 revolution in Benghazi.
"Some people and military personnel in Sirte supported the old regime. So they believed that helping ISIL was better than having the 17th February revolutionaries in Sirte," explains Ismail Shokri, a Libyan intelligence officer. So when the March 2015 fight against ISIL in Sirte began, "I remember Operation Dignity planes bombing Battalion 166 as they were fighting ISIL", he says.
They [ISIL] weren't targeted or bombed so they arrived safely in Sirte, protected by Haftar. He claims to fight terrorism but why didn't he bomb them?
BrigadierMohammed Al-Ghusri, in charge of operation al-Bunyan al-Marsous
As the government backed-forces were doing their best to fight ISIL in Sirte, General Haftar's forces launched what they called 'Operation Qurdabiya Two', their supposed bid to liberate Sirte from ISIL. But it fell well short.

Chaos in Libya is Setting The Stage For An ISIS Comeback (HBO)

Six years after Muammar Gaddafi’s fall in 2011, fighting between rival government and militias has plunged Libya into anarchy, creating a vacuum for groups like ISIS to move into.
Last year, ISIS took control of the port city of Sirte, Gaddafi’s former hometown and the largest ISIS stronghold outside Iraq and Syria. But local militias, backed by U.S. airstrikes, recaptured Sirte after a seven month-long battle that ended in December.
Yet the fractious local militias guarding Sirte still have no real control over the territory. And ISIS is regrouping nearby, raising fears that Libya’s new slide toward anarchy could pave the way for an ISIS comeback.
VICENews reports from Sirte.

Thank you so much to my hosts in Libya for providing me with a unique and eclectic experience during my brief stay. The Ministry of Tourism meeting was truly informative and I look forward to furthering the development of tourism in Libya back to what it was before.
*This video is my own personal experience in that I had in Tripoli, Liberia and only Tripoli. I stayed with a family who's home was surrounded with a tall concrete fence and barbed wire, for safety. Two of the friends who showed me around were equipped with hand guns for my safety, which made me feel very comfortable since we were out until 9pm exploring Tripoli and it's dangerous to be out at night. I did not travel around anywhere else in Libya due to the current situation and can not speak for other places. Please take this video as an educational experience about Tripoli aside from all the negative news we see/hear every day. Political or negative comments will not be welcome. Just enjoy :)

A historic report filmed as Libya celebrated 25 years of Gaddafi's rule.
The UN has stopped all flights in and out of Libya and, during a seven hour wait to board the ferry to Malta, tempers flare. Despite these hardships Libya prospers. A Libyan official speaks frankly about his leader and admits mistakes have been made. He expresses regret for Libyas backing of the IRA and says it was revenge for Britains part in the 1986 raid on Tripoli. We visit Gaddafi's bombed house - an eerie shrine to his daughter who died in that attack. Human rights abuses are detailed by a former university lecturer in Libya. He talks of lynchings in the university grounds. This film challenges the Wests view of Libya and looks at Gaddafis struggles both at home and abroad.

Six years have passed since the outbreak of the revolution that led to the ouster and killing of Libyan strongman Muammar Gaddafi. With the country divided between rival clans, some are beginning to miss the old regime, however despised it was at the time. Our reporter Charles Emptaz went to Zintan, near Tripoli, which was the scene of fierce fighting between revolutionaries and pro-Gaddafi loyalists.
Zintan is a city like no other. Perched high in Libya’s north-western Nafusa Mountains, near the capital Tripoli, it played a key role in the revolution. It was here that Gaddafi’s first missiles fell in the west of the country. It was also in Zintan that Saif al-Islam, son of the deposed leader, was imprisoned. Finally, it was in Zintan that the 2014-2015 war between the nationalists and the Islamist brigades ended. Today, what remains of all these battles, victories and defeats? What is left of the ideals of the Libyan revolution?
To recount the singular history of this city, our reporter met with Zintan’s warlords and inhabitants, sketching the outline of a post-revolutionary Libya, torn between dreams of emancipation and the risk of the country splitting up.

As Libya descends further into civil war and lawlessness, migrants from Africa and the Middle East continue to journey to the country’s coast in search of smugglers to take them across the Mediterranean Sea and into Europe.
Search and rescue operations by Libya’s coast guard are restricted due to diminishing resources, and have to contend with dangerous gangs of armed traffickers.
Those rescued at sea by the coast guard are brought to detention centers, where they face deplorable conditions and are forced to remain for long periods of time. In some instances, migrants are detained by militias in unofficial prisons outside of government control.
In part one of a three part series, VICENews is given access to chilling footage filmed by the Libyan coast guard, who have witnessed an influx of migrants trying to cross the Mediterranean Sea, recovering hundreds of bodies of those who’ve drowned on their journey to Europe.

In remote southwest Sahara, the indigenous Tuareg tribe — variously used and discriminated against by former strongman Muammar Qaddafi — fight for their place in a post-revolutionary Libya.
Living deep in Libya’s desert near large oil fields and lucrative smuggling routes, hundreds of miles from Libya’s capital, the Tuareg find themselves impoverished and isolated on this prized land.
Nowhere is this felt more than in the oasis town of Ubari. Here the Tuareg are pitted against former neighbors in a proxy battle for assets and power, backed by government and international interests.
VICENews travels to meet the Tuareg on the front lines of Ubari and the border town of Ghat, to find out what is really happening in this rarely visited land.

Libya’s Migrant Trade: Europe or Die (Full Length)

In a desperate bid to seek a better life in Europe, thousands of refugees and migrants leave the shores ofLibya and cross the perilous Mediterranean Sea every month. Over 2,000 people have died making the journey in 2015 alone.
The routes to and journey through Libya are also dangerous, however, and since the fall of Muammar Qaddafi in 2011, the country has struggled to achieve and maintain stability. Porous desert borders, rival fighters, and weak governance have left much of Libya in complete chaos.
With militias controlling large swathes of land, their attentions have turned to the people that cross their territories. The fighters assert they are bringing order to the country as they detain the refugees, yet these people’s lives have become valuable commodities to the militias as they try to solidify their positions in the country.
VICENews secured exclusive access to a camp outside Tripoli, run by a militia that has seized hundreds of migrants. Food is scarce, dehydration and disease is rife, and control comes in the form of whips and warning shots. The militia claims to have the migrants’ interests at heart, but what emerges is a very different story.

Libya Vacation Travel Video Guide

Travel video about destination Libya.
Libya is one of the most interesting desert countries and it is gradually opening its doors to the outside world. It is a veritable treasure trove of history. Ancient art and culture of various epochs as well as the fascinating exotic flair of the Orient make Libya a wonderful and fascinating holiday destination. The capital, Tripoli, awakes early in the morning as fishermen return from their nocturnal work at sea along with their catch which is fresh and tasty and ready for market. In antiquity Tripoli was called Oea and was one of the three cities of Tripolitania. Seventy kilometres west of Tripoli and also located on the Mediterranean coast are the remains of the ancient trading town of Sabratha. Its Theatre has been rebuilt and is an impressive structure that dates back to the second century A.D. It was originally built by the Romans who came here after the Phoenicians and gave the city a completely new appearance. It could accommodate up to five thousand onlookers. Just like the country’s former explorers we venture further and further into the desert and spend the night in Kirkiba Camp in circular straw huts at the foot of huge sand dunes. Next day we visit Garma, now in ruins, but whioch around two thousand years ago was the capital of the GaramantesRealm. From the Sahara we travel to the country’s eastern Mediterranean coast and to ancient Cyrenaika, the largest city in today’s Benghazi. Of the historic city of the Pentapolis, the Greek five-city alliance, nothing remains today as it is now covered by modern city buildings. Magnificent history, untouched coastlines and endless desert landscapes with oasis settlements, salt lakes, rock paintings and Berber towns: Libya, a little known land in amazing North Africa.

Libya 2016: A Solo Female Travelers' Perspective | EXPEDITION 196

Thank you so much to my hosts in Libya for providing me with a unique and eclectic experience during my brief stay. The Ministry of Tourism meeting was truly informative and I look forward to furthering the development of tourism in Libya back to what it was before.
*This video is my own personal experience in that I had in Tripoli, Liberia and only Tripoli. I stayed with a family who's home was surrounded with a tall concrete fence and barbed wire, for safety. Two of the friends who showed me around were equipped with hand guns for my safety, which made me feel very comfortable since we were out until 9pm exploring Tripoli and it's dangerous to be out at night. I did not travel around anywhere else in Libya due to the current situation and can not speak for other places. Please take this video as an educational experience about Tripoli aside from all the negative news we see/hear every day. Political or negative comments will not be welcome. Just enjoy :)

Tripoli Vacation Travel Video Guide

Travel video about destination Tripoli in Libya.
Tripoli is the capital of the desert state of Libya. The old town is known as the Medina and with its narrow lanes and squat buildings it is a combination of Arabian, North African and Mediterranean cultures. The joie de vivre of the local people is obvious and music and dance are part of their daily life. In antiquity the city was called Oea that was one of the three cities of Tripolitania and in Roman times this section of the coast contained the trading towns of Leptis Magna and Sabratha. Since 1963 Tripoli has been the capital of the Great Socialist Libyan-Arab People’s Republic. The old town contains a souk that was almost fully abandoned following the Great Revolution as private trading was then forbidden but when the law was abolished in 1988 it once again sprang to life. Modern Tripoli is undergoing constant development. Contemporary architecture is everywhere with skyscrapers that contain offices and apartments that have been built on the periphery of the city. Around seventy kilometres west of Tripoli and also located on the Mediterranean coast are the remains of the ancient trading town of Sabratha. Its Theatre has been rebuilt and is still an impressive structure that dates back to the second century A.D. Tripoli, along with the historic towns of the former Tripolitania, is one of the most spectacular places of ancient culture in North Africa and the heritage of an advanced civilisation located on the edge of the Sahara.

Tripolitania (Libya) Vacation Travel Video Guide

Travel video about destination Tripolitania in Libya.
Tripolitania: at first sight there are few traces of this ancient and legendary place in northwest Libya but it once had three great cities, Sabratha, Leptis Magna And Oea, Tripoli, once named Oea, dates back to the 7th centuryB.C. when Tripoli was an important trading centre for the Carthaginians. As much as anything else it is the local plants, majestic palm trees and impressive cacti that give Tripoli its Mediterranean atmosphere. Clearly, the influence of the sea is only present close to the coast as a few kilometres inland is endless desert. An eye-catching landmark that dates back to the time of the corsairs is the Citadel in Tripoli’s harbour. The Arabs enlarged the original Byzantine complex to a fortress and for a short spell the city fell into the hands of the Spanish. Sabratha is the youngest of the three great cities of Tripolitania. Thanks to much restoration work the Theatre is one of the most impressive architectural monuments of this once legendary trading city. The restored façade of the Roman stage building is one of the most beautiful to be seen anywhere. Columns of green-white Cipollino Marble with artistic capitols underline the extraordinary architectural charm of Sabratha’s ancient theatre. Around a hundred and twenty kilometres east of Tripoli is Tripolitania’s third ancient metropolis of Leptis Magna, a unique excavation site. The oldest finds in Leptis Magna were made in a Punic cemetery that had been built on by the Romans. Under the rule of Carthage, Leptis Magna became an important trading metropolis until it fell into the hands of the Numidians. The remains of the legendary Tripolitania of antiquity continue to inspire even today and are proof of a great and golden epoch.

Akakus Vacation Travel Video Guide

Travel video about nature park Akakus in Libya.
Mighty, jagged silhouettes announce the entrance to an enchanting world of rock and sandstone. Akakus is not only a mountain range in South West Libya it is also an almost fairytale-like region, a place of silence and contemplation. However, the landscape does not embrace visitors with open arms as the mountains can only be explored with four-wheel drive vehicles and experienced local drivers.The leg of the journey through the Wadi Taschunt travels past a magnificent natural arch of which there are many more in the Akakus. The Tadrat Akakus area is around fifty kilometres long and up to fifty kilometres wide and is a mighty rock and endless desert landscape that forms a natural border between Libya and Algeria. Scattered artefacts and magnificent rock paintings indicate the existence of a past epoch that was discovered in the middle of the nineteenth century. The discovery of the Akakus rock paintings in1850 was made by German explorer and scientist, Heinrich Barth. The Guelta Taschunt is famous for its extremely narrow canyon that can only be entered on foot, a walk that is well worthwhile. Surrounded by high, steep rock walls and separated from the outside world, those who come here often experience a strange and sometimes even oppressive sensation. The next highlight of our journey through the desert mountain region of Akakus is about to commence, a visit to the King Of The Tuareg. The ninety four year old king welcomes us and proudly demonstrates how the traditional head dress of the Tuareg should be worn. The desert mountains of AKAKUS are far more than just a fascinating landscape whose natural splendour and remoteness are the main attraction. The rocks in the dried out river valleys are like an historic picture book that provides us with a remarkable insight into what was once a long-lost culture of the Sahara!

Life After Qaddafi — Libya: A Broken State

Subscribe to VICENews here: http://bit.ly/Subscribe-to-VICE-News
Three years after the Libyan revolution and the subsequent downfall of its dictator Muammar Qaddafi, the country has descended further into chaos and insecurity. Rebel militias, radical Islamists and former Qaddafi commander Khalifa Haftar are among the different groups vying for power and oil wealth, creating a vacuum in which violence and militancy reign supreme.
VICE News filmmaker Medyan Dairieh was in Libya in 2011 to witness the revolution. This year, he returned to follow members of the 17th February battalion, a rebel group fighting against Haftar’s forces. Dairieh witnessed first-hand how life after the Libyan revolution has devolved into lawlessness and Islamic State-linked extremism.

Flint Water Crisis & Libya on the Brink (VICE on HBO: Season 4, Episode 15)

The water crisis in Flint, Michigan horrified the nation: a once-thriving industrial city had fallen on such hard times that residents couldn't even trust the water from their own taps. More shocking still were revelations that city and state officials knew about the problems with the water, but failed to take action or warn the public. VICE reports from Flint on the realities of life in a city poisoned by its own government.
When the Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi was killed during the revolution of 2011, it seemed like good news for democracy in the Muslim world. But in 2012, the American ambassador and three other Americans were killed in a bloody attack in Benghazi. Today, a split between government factions has ceded large portions of the country to ISIS fighters and other extremists. VICE reports from the front lines as rival militias fight to save Libya as we know it.

BBC HARDtalk on the road in Eastern Libya

HARDtalk is on the road in Eastern Libya. Benghazi, the country’s second city Benghazi, has been torn apart by six years of war.
After the fall of GaddafiLibya plunged into anarchy, radical Islamists seized control of Benghazi. Thousands were killed, tens of thousands fled.
Three years ago MarshalKhalifa Haftar took command of the self-proclaimed Libyan National Army and waged war on the extremists.
Recently, Marshal Haftar declared Benghazi to be liberated, his forces now control most of eastern Libya.
From Benghazi Stephen Sackur examines Marshal Haftar’s impact on Libya and looks at his ambitions for the future.

Al Jazeera World - Libya's Shifting Sands: Sirte

Al JazeeraWorld - Libya's Shifting Sands: Sirte
In the second episode of Libya's Shifting Sands, Libyan government-backed forces find themselves fighting ISIL in the central coastal city of Sirte, 850 kilometres west of Derna.
ISIL moved on Sirte before it was forced from Derna, partly because it saw cities where the majority of people were opposed to the revolution of 2011 as prime targets. But by 2015, the government troops were fighting a losing battle. They expected to be boosted by forces controlled by the renegade GeneralKhalifa Haftar - but his operation proved less effective than anticipated.
In Derna, the government forces and local armed Islamist groups accused Haftar of colluding with ISIL. They referred to his group as Operation Dignity forces, after his campaign against supporters of the February 2011 revolution in Benghazi.
"Some people and military personnel in Sirte supported the old regime. So they believed that helping ISIL was better than having the 17th February revolutionaries in Sirte," explains Ismail Shokri, a Libyan intelligence officer. So when the March 2015 fight against ISIL in Sirte began, "I remember Operation Dignity planes bombing Battalion 166 as they were fighting ISIL", he says.
They [ISIL] weren't targeted or bombed so they arrived safely in Sirte, protected by Haftar. He claims to fight terrorism but why didn't he bomb them?
BrigadierMohammed Al-Ghusri, in charge of operation al-Bunyan al-Marsous
As the government backed-forces were doing their best to fight ISIL in Sirte, General Haftar's forces launched what they called 'Operation Qurdabiya Two', their supposed bid to liberate Sirte from ISIL. But it fell well short.

Chaos in Libya is Setting The Stage For An ISIS Comeback (HBO)

Six years after Muammar Gaddafi’s fall in 2011, fighting between rival government and militias has plunged Libya into anarchy, creating a vacuum for groups like ISIS to move into.
Last year, ISIS took control of the port city of Sirte, Gaddafi’s former hometown and the largest ISIS stronghold outside Iraq and Syria. But local militias, backed by U.S. airstrikes, recaptured Sirte after a seven month-long battle that ended in December.
Yet the fractious local militias guarding Sirte still have no real control over the territory. And ISIS is regrouping nearby, raising fears that Libya’s new slide toward anarchy could pave the way for an ISIS comeback.
VICENews reports from Sirte.

A historic report filmed as Libya celebrated 25 years of Gaddafi's rule.
The UN has stopped all flights in and out of Libya and, during a seven hour wait to board the ferry to Malta, tempers flare. Despite these hardships Libya prospers. A Libyan official speaks frankly about his leader and admits mistakes have been made. He expresses regret for Libyas backing of the IRA and says it was revenge for Britains part in the 1986 raid on Tripoli. We visit Gaddafi's bombed house - an eerie shrine to his daughter who died in that attack. Human rights abuses are detailed by a former university lecturer in Libya. He talks of lynchings in the university grounds. This film challenges the Wests view of Libya and looks at Gaddafis struggles both at home and abroad.

Six years have passed since the outbreak of the revolution that led to the ouster and killing of Libyan strongman Muammar Gaddafi. With the country divided between rival clans, some are beginning to miss the old regime, however despised it was at the time. Our reporter Charles Emptaz went to Zintan, near Tripoli, which was the scene of fierce fighting between revolutionaries and pro-Gaddafi loyalists.
Zintan is a city like no other. Perched high in Libya’s north-western Nafusa Mountains, near the capital Tripoli, it played a key role in the revolution. It was here that Gaddafi’s first missiles fell in the west of the country. It was also in Zintan that Saif al-Islam, son of the deposed leader, was imprisoned. Finally, it was in Zintan that the 2014-2015 war between the nationalists and the Islamist brigades ended. Today, what remains of all these battles, victories and defeats? What is left of the ideals of the Libyan revolution?
To recount the singular history of this city, our reporter met with Zintan’s warlords and inhabitants, sketching the outline of a post-revolutionary Libya, torn between dreams of emancipation and the risk of the country splitting up.
